Safety instructions 2.1 Intended use The portable insulation fault location system EDS309... is used to locate insulation faults in IT systems. All variants are suitable for the measurement of residual currents in TN and TT systems. The EDS3096PG is particularly suitable for insulation fault location in electrically isolated systems. Please observe the limits on the area of application stated in the technical specifications, as well as the measuring categories for the measuring clamps used. If, in the specific case, measuring current transformers other than the measuring clamps supplied are used with the EDS195P, attention is to be paid to ensuring the connection wires and transformer have an adequate nominal insulation voltage (overvoltage category, see Technical specifications) Use which deviates from or is beyond the scope of these technical specifications is considered noncompliant. System interference and high system leakage capacitances can degrade the accuracy of the measurement. 2.2 Device-specific safety instructions Hazard due to excessively high locating current or excessively high locating voltage! An excessively high PGH18... locating current may damage sensitive loads (e.g. in control circuits) or trigger unintended switching processes. For this reason select a lower locating current for these systems (1 or 10 mA). For instance it is only allowed to use the EDS3091 or EDS3091PG in systems with programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The locating voltage of DC 50 V produced by the locating current injector PGH186 can cause interference at sensitive system components. In case of doubt, contact Bender. The locating current from the PGH185 or PGH186 can cause residual current devices to trip. The locating current is limited to maximum 25 mA (or 10 mA), however 30 mA residual current devices may trip, for instance, between 15 and 30 mA. It is necessary to aim for the best possible conductor symmetry in the measuring clamp. Otherwise the measuring clamp may go into saturation due to an excessively high load current and cause an alarm IΔn >10A.

EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 13 System description 3.2 Function of the system components 3.2.1 Locating current injector PGH18... The PGH18... generates a defined locating current. The magnitude of the current is dependent on the insulation fault present and the system voltage. The PGH185 or PGH186 limits the locating current to maximum 25 mA or maximum 10 mA depending on the switch setting. The PGH183 limits the locating current to maximum 2.5 mA or maximum 1 mA depending on the switch setting. The PGH186 applies the locating current in electrically isolated IT systems or in IT systems with a system voltage < 50 V using an integrated voltage source (DC 50 V). In IT systems with a system voltage > 50 V the existing voltage in the system is used to drive the locating current. 3.2.2 Insulation fault locator EDS195P The insulation fault locator EDS195P has the following measuring functions: Insulation fault location IΔL (EDS mode) for use in IT AC or DC systems: – Either as a component of the portable equipment for insulation fault location EDS309... – Or as an additional insulation fault locator in permanently installed equipment for insulation fault location with IRDH575 or PGH1... as well as EDS46.../49.... Residual current measurement IΔn (RCM mode) for usage in TN or TT AC systems. The response value range can be found in Table 3.1 on page 14. Response value The response value is defined by the sensitivity of the EDS195P. This value can be set in both DC and AC and 3AC IT systems as an arithmetic mean in accordance with Tabelle 3.1 auf Seite 14. System interference and high system leakage capacitances can degrade the accuracy. 3.2.3 Measuring clamps Measuring clamps measure the locating current or the residual current. They have a test lead approx. 2 m long. The connection to the EDS195P is made using a BNC connection. The following table summarises the most important data for the usage of the different measuring clamps.

See table on page 60. 14 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 System description 3.2.4 Coupling device AGE185 The coupling device AGE185 expands the nominal voltage range of the equipment for insulation fault location EDS309.... It enables the equipment to be connected to system nominal voltages up to AC 790 V or DC 960 V. 3.3 Operating principle for insulation fault location (IΔL) On the occurrence of the first insulation fault in IT systems a residual current flows that is essentially defined by the system leakage capacitances. The basic concept of fault location is therefore to briefly close the fault circuit using a defined resistance. With this principle a locating current is provided by the system voltage and this locating current contains a signal that can be evaluated. The locating current is generated periodically by the locating current injector PGH18... (part of the EDS309...PG system). The locating current can also be generated by an IRDH575 or a locating current injector PGH47.... The amplitude and duration of the locating current is limited. During this process the system conductors are alternately connected to earth via a defined resistance. The locating current produced as a result is dependent on the magnitude of the insulation fault present and the system voltage. For example the locating current on the EDS3090 is limited to maximum 25 mA; with the setting Imax = 10mA it is limited to 10 mA. During planning it is to be ensured that there are no system components in which this locating current could cause a reaction involving damage in unfavourable circumstances. The locating current pulse flows from the locating current injector through the live conductors to the insulation fault by the shortest route. From there it flows via the insulation fault and the earth cable (PE cable) back to the locating current injector. This locating current pulse is detected by the measuring clamps or measuring current transformers in the insulation fault path and is indicated by the insulation fault locator EDS195P connected. You must ensure that all live conductors are routed through the measuring clamp. Do not route any protective earth conductors or screens on screened cables through the measuring clamp! Commercial measuring clamps are not suitable for the EDS309... and must not be used. Only if these notes are observed will you obtain a correct measurement result. You will find additional information in our technical information Techinfo08 "Transformer installation".

In this case only the insulation fault locator EDS195P and a measuring clamp are used, the locating current injector PGH18... is not required. As per Kirchhoff's law the sum of the currents flowing into any node in a network is equal to the sum of the currents flowing out.

The sum of the two currents is no longer zero. As soon as the residual current reaches or exceeds the response value there is an alarm message on the EDS195P. In the RCM mode it is possible to measure residual currents in single and three-phase TT or TN systems. If the system leakage capacitance ahead of the measuring clamp is sufficiently high, the EDS195P can also be used for measurements in single and threephase IT systems. The suitability of the device is to be checked in the specific case. 18 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 4. Considerations prior to use 4.1 How does the equipment for insulation fault location work The equipment comprises a locating current injector PGH18... and an insulation fault locator EDS195P with measuring clamp PSA3... connected. Functional sequence Insulation fault location is started by activating the locating current injector PGH18... The locating current injector PGH18... briefly connects the live conductors to earth with current limiting. The insulation fault creates a closed circuit in which a locating current IL dependent on the system voltage flows. The locating current is limited to a maximum value of 25 mA or 10 mA (PGH185/186), 2.5 mA or 1 mA (PGH183). The locating current flows from the locating current injector via the live cables, the insulation fault RF and the earth cable (PE cable) back to the locating current injector. The locating current signal can be measured using measuring clamp placed around the cables in the outgoing circuit from the distribution system and evaluated by the insulation fault locator EDS195P. The location of the fault can be determined exactly by moving along the cable with the measuring clamp. PSA... PGH18... IL EDS195P Abb. 4.1: EDS operating principle EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 19 Considerations prior to use 4.2 Requirements for reliable insulation fault location The insulation fault locator has the task of locating the insulation fault RF-N downstream of the measuring clamp. For this purpose, it must reliably detect the locating current caused by the insulation fault. Requirements: The insulation fault must be present for at least 30s The locating current is in the following ranges: – Main circuits with EDS3090, EDS3090PG, EDS3090PG-13, EDS3096PG: IL = 2...50 mA – Control circuits with EDS3091, EDS3091PG, EDS3091PG-13: IL = 0.2...5 mA The upstream capacitances CE-V must be at least as large as the downstream capacitances CE-N. See also "Kapitel 3.3.4" The total system leakage capacitance must not exceed the maximum values in the characteristics in "Kapitel 4.4". The sum of the locating current and residual current flowing through the measuring clamp or the measuring current transformer must not exceed the following values: – Main circuits with EDS3090, EDS3090PG, EDS3090PG-13, EDS3096PG-13: maximum 10 A – Control circuits with EDS3091, EDS3091PG, EDS3091PG-13: maximum 1 A There must be no connections to other outgoing circuits downstream of a measuring clamp or measuring current transformer, see sketch. ISOSCAN® I EDS195P n I L ALARM I n I L ESC HOLD INFO RESET MENU OK Abb. 4.2: Connections between outgoing circuits will result in measuring errors As well as the magnitude of the residual current, the frequency of the residual current also affects the reliable detection of the locating current. Residual currents at frequencies other than the system frequency may, e.g., be caused by the usage of frequency converters. The behaviour of the EDS309... is described by the fault curve shown below: – If the residual currents measured in main circuits exceed 10 A, the EDS195P outputs the alarm message "IΔn >10A". This statement applies to the system frequencies 50/60/400 Hz for the EDS3090, EDS3090PG, EDS3090PG-13, EDS3096PG and EDS3096PG-13 – If the residual currents measured in control circuits exceed 1 A, the EDS195P outputs the alarm message "IΔn >1A". This statement applies to the system frequencies 50/60/400 Hz for the EDS3091, EDS3091PG and EDS3091PG-13. 20 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 1 0,9 0,8 0,7 0,6 0,5 0,4 0,3 Permissible residual current [A] EDS3090..., EDS3096...

There must be no connections between outgoing circuits downstream of the measuring clamp because such connections will produce interfering residual currents. For example, the message "IΔn>10A" may be output as a consequence. Symmetrical insulation faults downstream of the measuring current transformer will not be detected in certain circumstances. Low frequency residual currents (e.g. caused by converters) can mean that insulation faults are not found if their frequency is the same as or approximately the same as the frequency of the locating cycle of the PGH18.... Parallel cables routed to the same load are to be routed together through the measuring clamp during the measurement. EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 21 Considerations prior to use 4.3 Reduced locating current Particularly in DC control voltage systems in the power station and public utility sector there may be relays or PLCs installed that switch at relatively low currents. In such a case the Imax switch on the PGH18... must be placed in the 10 mA or 1 mA position. The switch's label, e.g. 10 mA or 25 mA, defines the magnitude of the locating current only for DC systems. For AC locating currents see "chapter 4.4". It must also be checked prior to a measurement with reduced locating current (switch position 10 mA or 1 mA) whether sensitive system components could be triggered unintentionally. 4.4 Response sensitivity characteristics of the EDS195P The type of system, system voltage, system frequency, system leakage capacitance and locating current all affect the EDS system's response sensitivity. The magnitude of the locating current can be set on the locating current injector PGH18.... A reduced locating current is produced in AC systems depending on the type of system. In comparison to DC systems the related factor in AC systems is 0.5 and in 3AC systems 0.67. For this reason set the response value on the EDS195P for usage in AC and 3AC systems as follows: Settings Main circuit Control circuit Equipment for insulation fault location EDS3090 EDS3090PG EDS3090PG-13 EDS3096PG EDS3091 EDS3091PG EDS3091PG-13 EDS195P setting: select the measuring clamp type using button PGH18... setting: locating current IL PSA3020, PSA3052, PSA3165 PSA3320, PSA3352 Measuring range 2...50 mA Measuring range 0.2...5 mA 25 mA (PGH185/186) 2.5 mA (PGH183) Response range EDS195P Menu item 2.2: IΔL ALM 2 to 10 mA 0.2...1 mA PGH18... setting: reduced locating current IL 10 mA (PGH185/186) 1 mA (PGH183) 2...5 mA 0.2 to 0.5 mA Response range EDS195P with reduced locating current Menu item 2.2: IΔL ALM Tab. 4.1: Settings for the EDS195P and the PGH18... For the response value setting see menu item “2. Settings/ 2. IΔL) on page 38. The response values are given as characteristics that can have a maximum error of ±30 %. Measuring clamp tolerances are included here. The characteristics apply at the related nominal voltage stated. In case of variation in the nominal voltage, a proportional change in the response values is to be expected. In case of system voltages that change dynamically or in case of superimposed DC currents and AC currents that vary from the system frequency (e.g. due to frequency converters), response values outside the ranges shown may result. The characteristics below enable you to simply determine a practical response value for the EDS195P. If the insulation monitoring device in a monitored system indicates an alarm message, manual insulation fault location can be started. Proceed as follows: 22 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 Considerations prior to use 1. Select the characteristics (3AC, AC, DC) that are appropriate for your type of system. 2. From these, select the diagram that best matches the desired system voltage. 3. Calculate the expected leakage capacitance Ce of the system monitored. Insulation monitoring devices in the IRDH... series can indicate the magnitude of the leakage capacitance (press INFO button). Apply this value to the diagram in the form of a vertical line. If it is not possible to check the capacitance, the highest capacitance in the related diagram is to be taken. 4. The characteristics shown indicate the response sensitivity of the EDS195P in main circuits for 2 mA, 5 mA and 10 mA and in control circuits for 0.2 mA, 0.5 mA and 1 mA. Values above the related curve cannot be measured. Values and characteristics that lie in the area between the upper and lower characteristic can be estimated approximately using the existing characteristics. 5. Set the required response value, on the left of the line from point 3., on the EDS195P. 6. The characteristics for DC 24 V and AC 42 V do not apply to the EDS3096, as the locating current generator operates with a locating voltage of DC 50 V. For this reason the curves for DC 60 V and AC 110 V apply at these nominal voltages.

Connecting the locating current injector Hazard due to excessively high locating voltage Check the information on the nameplate to ensure the devices to be connected are suitable for the supplying system. The operation of the PGH18... and possibly the power supply unit with an incorrect supply voltage can cause irreparable damage to the devices. Prior to commissioning please check whether all system components are correctly connected together. 5.1 Disconnecting insulation monitoring device During insulation fault location using the EDS309... an existing insulation monitoring device must be disconnected from the system for the duration of the fault location if its internal resistance is Ri < 120 kΩ. During this process the connection to the system must be interrupted on all poles, shutting down the supply voltage to the insulation monitoring device is insufficient. On the usage of such a device with Ri ≥ 120 kΩ the effect is negligible, disconnection is not required in this case. However the PGH18... will affect the measurement made by the insulation monitoring device. 5.2 Locating current injector in an electrically isolated IT system For insulation fault location in electrically isolated systems using the EDS3096PG, the integrated voltage source G in the PGH186 supplies a locating voltage. The locating voltage DC 50 V is provided by the PGH186 at the socket L1(+). Make sure that this socket is coupled to the system to be monitored during insulation fault location, only then will the integrated voltage source in the PGH186 be effective. Note that the active conductors in the system to be checked must be coupled together via loads or the electrically isolated power supply.

If the PGH18... is connected using terminals L1, L2, L3 (or L1, L2) to a system that is live due to its operation, the terminal must not be disconnected from the protective earth conductor (PE). Otherwise the terminal will be at the dangerous system voltage! 28 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 6. Operation 6.1 Short description of insulation fault location (EDS mode) Risk of electric shock! On touching live uninsulated conductors, death or serious injury may be caused. For this reason avoid any contact whatsoever with active conductors on positioning the measuring clamp. 6.1.1 Commissioning the PGH18... for locating current injection 1. The PGH18... is to be connected first to PE in the system to be checked, see page 28 2. Then connect the PGH18... to the active conductors 3. Connect device to US and switch on If the locating current IL is to be supplied by an IRDH575, select the EDS-Setup menu item on this device and set to EDS=On. 6.1.2 Insulation fault location using EDS195P 1. There must be no conductors in the measuring clamp and the measuring clamp must be stationary during commissioning 2. Switch on EDS195P without current transformer using On/Off button 3. Wait for the end of the self test and the message "No CT connected" 4. Set required current transformer type using the button at the top right 5. Connect selected current transformer and wait for end of the self-test 6. Fit measuring clamp to PE conductor between PGH18... (IRDH575) and, for example, PE rail to demonstrate that the necessary locating current IL is flowing. 7. Place measuring clamp around the associated active conductors for the related outgoing circuit. Caution! Do not include PE in the cables in the clamp! 8. Read measured value and evaluate. If the response value set has been exceeded, the "ALARM" LED flashes. 6.2 Detailed description of insulation fault location For information on using the EDS309... without a permanently installed EDS system, see page 42 For information on using the EDS309... in addition to a permanently installed EDS system, see page 45 For information on using the EDS309... in diode-decoupled DC systems, see page 49 6.3 Description of a residual current measurement Using the EDS195P it is also possible to undertake residual current measurements up to a value of 10 A, see page 49.

On touching live uninsulated conductors, death or serious injury may be caused. For this reason avoid any contact whatsoever with active conductors on connecting the PGH and positioning the measuring clamp. The EDS309... is primarily used as a portable insulation fault location system in unearthed IT systems. Once all the instructions in chapter “Considerations prior to use” on page 19 have been followed, insulation fault location can be started. Proceed as follows during this process: 1. Check whether the system voltage is within the permissible limits. The permissible voltages are stated in the user interface on the PGH18.... 2. Connect the locating current injector PGH18... close to the feed, see connection diagram on page 28. During this process follow the general guidelines for working with electrically live systems! – First connect the PE socket on the PGH18... to the system's PE using the green-yellow wire. – Then connect the PGH18... to the system to be checked using the connection wires provided. Three-phase system Connect sockets L1, L2 and L3 to the system Single-phase AC or DC Connect sockets L1 and L2 to the system 3. Connect the PGH18... to a suitable power supply using the power cable supplied (see nameplate). 4. If there is an insulation monitoring device with an Ohmic internal resistance < 120 kΩ in the IT system to be checked, disconnect it from the system to be checked on all poles. It is not sufficient to switch off the power supply to the insulation monitoring device. 5. Set the maximum locating current using the Imax switch on the PGH18.... Follow the instructions in chapter “Reduced locating current” on page 22. 6. Switch on the PGH18.... The "ON" LED illuminates and the two " " and " " LEDs flash alternately in synchronism with the test cycle. If there is no activity indicated on the LEDs, please check the supply voltage and the fine-wire fuse that can be accessed from the front panel. 7. Switch on the EDS195P without a current transformer connected by pressing the On/Off button. The device undertakes a self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected. 8. Now select the type of measuring clamp or measuring current transformer to be connected using the button at the top right. The device undertakes a further self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected 9. Then connect the pre-selected measuring clamp or the pre-selected measuring current transformer to the EDS195P. The device undertakes a further self-test and is then in the EDS mode. "IΔL" appears in the first line of the display. 42 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 Operation 10. On handling the measuring clamp note: – Do not bring measuring clamp into contact with system voltages above the rated insulation voltage (see nameplate on the measuring clamp with information on measuring category, e.g. CAT III) – Always keep contact surfaces on measuring clamp's iron core clean. – Do not use measuring clamp in the immediate vicinity of devices that produce magnetic fields such as transformers or chokes and also not near adjacent conductors carrying high currents. – Never disconnect measuring clamp from the EDS195P while it is placed around electrically live conductors. Otherwise the measuring clamp may be irreparably damaged! – Aim for the best possible symmetry of the conductors in the measuring clamp. Otherwise the measuring clamp may go into saturation due to an excessively high load current and cause an alarm IΔn >10A. – Keep the measuring clamp still during the measurement! – During the measurement do not apply any pressure to the clamp limb. 11. Place the measuring clamp around the green-yellow wire between the PGH18... and earth. If the EDS195P does not react, the insulation fault has an excessively high impedance and cannot be detected. Locating current pulses detected are indicated using the symbol. 12. Start the insulation fault location from the main distribution area of the IT system. Place the measuring clamp around all system conductors, but not the PE conductor. During each measurement wait one test cycle (approx. 30 seconds). A flashing alarm LED on the EDS195P signals an insulation fault after (from the point of view of the locating current injector) the measuring clamp. It recommended to have the buzzer activated during the search. 13. Now measure along the cable using the EDS195P until the fault is found. During this process move into sub-distribution systems using a star-shaped approach. The location of the fault is found when the locating current in the measuring clamp generated by the PGH18... exceeds as a minimum the response value set on EDS195P. Possible error messages Self test Error: – Incorrect current transformer type set – EDS195P hardware faulty – Clamp moved while the indication ">>>Self test<<<" was displayed – An interfering residual current is flowing through the clamp – There is a PGH locating pulse acting on the clamp No CT connected / Short-circuit CT: Measuring clamp or measuring current transformer not connected or faulty. Error IΔL (can only be indicated while a measurement is in progress): – Low frequency interference, measurement not possible – EDS195P hardware faulty IΔn >10A / >1A: This message only appears in the RCM mode. There is a residual current > 10 A or >1A flowing through the measuring clamp. In this case it is EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 43 Operation not possible to locate the insulation fault on the related outgoing circuit. Residual currents of this magnitude in an IT system can be caused by large system leakage capacitances or multiple insulation faults. It is therefore possible that there is an insulation fault on this outgoing circuit also with this alarm message. At operating currents < 10 A a measurement can also be made by placing the clamp around only one conductor. At currents > 10 A it may no longer be possible to open the measuring clamp. This risk is particularly apparent in DC systems. If this effect occurs, under no circumstances apply force; this action would irreparably damage the measuring clamp. Instead the related system must be shut down. It will then be possible to open the measuring clamp without the need to apply force. 44 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 Operation 6.12.2 Insulation fault location in a system with a permanently installed EDS system The EDS195P can also be used in a permanently installed EDS system (EDS460/490 or EDS461/491). In a large, complex IT system the main outgoing circuits are often monitored by the permanently installed EDS system. Once the main outgoing circuit affected by an insulation fault is detected, the search is continued from there using the portable EDS195P. During this process the EDS195P uses the locating current pulse from the permanently installed EDS system (IRDH575, PGH47...). The PGH18... is not required for this application. The PGH18... is not included in the items supplied with the EDS3090 and EDS3091. Insulation fault location is therefore only possible in electrically live IT systems. Also follow the operating instructions for the permanently installed EDS system. Risk of electric shock! On touching live uninsulated conductors, death or serious injury may be caused. For this reason avoid any contact whatsoever with active conductors on positioning the measuring clamp. Example: The insulation monitoring device has signalled an insulation fault below its response value and started the permanently installed EDS system. The main outgoing circuit affected by the insulation fault has been detected. Proceed as follows for the further insulation fault location: 1. Set the mode of the EDS system to continuous insulation fault location: – IRDH575: On the "EDS Setup" menu set the "EDS on" mode – PGH471: Press "Start/Stop" button 2. Switch on the EDS195P without a current transformer connected by pressing the On/Off button. The device undertakes a self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected. 3. Now select the type of measuring clamp or measuring current transformer to be connected using the button at the top right. The device undertakes a further self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected 4. Then connect the pre-selected measuring clamp or the pre-selected measuring current transformer to the EDS195P. The device undertakes a further self-test and is then in the EDS mode. "IΔL" appears in the first line of the display. 5. On handling measuring clamps note: – Do not bring measuring clamp into contact with system voltages above the nominal insulation voltage. (See nameplate on the measuring clamp with information on measuring category, e.g. CAT III) – Always keep contact surfaces on measuring clamp's iron core clean. – Do not use measuring clamp in the immediate vicinity of devices that produce magnetic fields such as transformers or chokes and also not near adjacent conductors carrying high currents. – Never disconnect measuring clamp from the EDS195P while it is placed around electrically live conductors. Otherwise the measuring clamp may be irreparably damaged! – Aim for the best possible symmetry of the conductors in the measuring clamp. Otherwise the measuring clamp may go into saturation due to an excessively high load current and cause an alarm IΔn >10A. – Keep the measuring clamp still during the measurement! – During the measurement do not apply any pressure to the clamp limb. EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 45 Operation 6. Place the measuring clamp around the green-yellow wire between the IRDH575 or PGH47... and earth. If the EDS195P does not react, the insulation fault has an excessively high impedance and cannot be detected. Locating current pulses detected are indicated using the symbol. 7. Start the insulation fault location in the outgoing circuit of the IT system already detected as faulty. Place the measuring clamp around all system conductors, but not the PE conductor. During each measurement wait one test cycle (approx. 30 seconds). A flashing alarm LED on the EDS195P signals an insulation fault after (from the point of view of the locating current injector) the measuring clamp. It recommended to have the buzzer activated during the search. 8. Now measure along the cable using the EDS195P until the insulation fault is found. During this process move into sub-distribution systems using a star-shaped approach. The location of the fault is found when the locating current generated by the IRDH575 or PGH47... in the measuring clamp exceeds as a minimum the response value set on EDS195P. Possible error messages Self test Error: – Incorrect current transformer type set – EDS195P hardware faulty – Clamp moved while the indication ">>>Self test<<<" was displayed – An interfering residual current is flowing through the clamp – There is a PGH locating pulse acting on the clamp No CT connected / Short-circuit CT: Measuring clamp or measuring current transformer not connected or faulty. Error IΔL (can only be indicated while a measurement is in progress): – Low frequency interference, measurement not possible – EDS195P hardware faulty IΔn >10A / >1A: There is a residual current > 10 A or >1A flowing through the measuring clamp. In this case it is not possible to locate the insulation fault on the related outgoing circuit. Residual currents of this magnitude in an IT system can be caused by large system leakage capacitances or multiple insulation faults. It is therefore possible that there is an insulation fault on this outgoing circuit also with this alarm message. At operating currents < 10 A a measurement can also be made by placing the clamp around only one conductor. At currents > 10 A it may no longer be possible to open the measuring clamp. This risk is particularly apparent in DC systems. If this effect occurs, under no circumstances apply force; this action would irreparably damage the measuring clamp. Instead the related system must be shut down. It will then be possible to open the measuring clamp without the need to apply force. 46 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 Operation 6.12.3 Insulation fault location in diode-decoupled DC systems In diode-decoupled DC systems equalising currents occur in and between the decoupled circuits. The direction and magnitude of these equalising currents is dependent on voltages in the system, the characteristics of the decoupling diodes and the characteristics of the loads. On the usage of the insulation fault location system EDS309... in such systems these equalising currents make themselves apparent and can degrade the accuracy of the measurement. For this reason we recommend the usage of the EDS309... in diode-decoupled systems as shown in the sketch on the next page. Risk of electric shock! On touching live uninsulated conductors, death or serious injury may be caused. For this reason avoid any contact whatsoever with active conductors on connecting the PGH and positioning the measuring clamp. During this process please note: Always use two measuring clamps of the same type. Attention: this clamp type must also be set on the EDS195P. For this purpose use the EDS195P set (see ordering data, page 59). Take into account the maximum length of the coax cable of 10 m per measuring clamp. The usage of two measuring clamps results in a sensitivity loss of around 10 %. It is imperative both measuring clamps are used such that the direction of the flow of energy corresponds to the arrow printed on the clamp. Example: The central insulation monitoring device in a DC system without permanently installed insulation fault location system (EDS) has signalled an insulation fault that is below the insulation value that can be located using the EDS system. Once all the instructions from "chapter 4. Considerations prior to use" have been followed, fault location in a modified form can be started. Proceed as follows during this process: 1. Read the actual insulation resistance on the insulation monitoring device. If the value read for the insulation resistance is lower than the maximum insulation fault that can be located by the EDS system, two appropriate identical measuring clamps (e.g. 2 x PSA3020 or 2 x PSA3052) are required for the insulation fault location. 2. Switch on the EDS195P without a current transformer by pressing the On/Off button. The device undertakes a self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected". 3. Now select the type of measuring clamp(s) to be connected using the button at the top right. The device undertakes a further self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected 4. Then connect the pre-selected measuring clamp(s) to the EDS195P. The device undertakes a further self-test and is then in the EDS mode. "IΔL" appears in the first line of the display 5. Connect the PGH18... to the locating current injection points are shown on page 48. 6. Start the EDS system: Switch on the PGH18.... The "ON" LED illuminates and the two and LEDs flash in synchronism with the test cycle. If there is no activity indicated on the LEDs, check the supply voltage and the fine-wire fuse fitted in the PGH18.... 7. Insulation fault location in the system: – Place a measuring clamp around each of the supply cables to the redundantly supplied loads. During this process ensure that the clamp is placed around all related load supply cables for a diode-decoupled load. EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 47 Operation – Pay attention to identical directions of flow on the two measuring clamps (see connection diagram). For this purpose the measuring clamps are marked with an arrow Place the two measuring clamps successively and systematically around all parallel outgoing cables for loads. Outgoing cables for loads with an insulation fault are indicated by the flashing alarm LED on the EDS195P. The alarm messages are output in the same way as for an application with a single measuring clamp. For possible error messages see page 43.

Residual current measurement is only possible in electrically live systems. The locating current injector PGH18... is not required for this application. 1. Check whether the system voltage is within the permissible limits. 2. Switch on the EDS195P without a current transformer connected by pressing the On/Off button. The device undertakes a self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected. 3. Now select the type of measuring clamp or measuring current transformer to be connected using the button at the top right. The device undertakes a further self-test and outputs the error message "No CT connected" because a current transformer is not connected 4. Then connect the pre-selected measuring clamp or the pre-selected measuring current transformer to the EDS195P. The device undertakes a further self-test and is then in the EDS mode. "IΔL" appears in the first line of the display. 5. Make the following settings: – Change to the IΔn (RCM mode) function using the related button – Set residual current response value using the menu path "2. Settings /3. IΔn ALM:" 6. On handling measuring clamps note: – Do not bring measuring clamp into contact with system voltages above the nominal insulation voltage. (See nameplate on the measuring clamp) – During the measurement place the clamp around all system conductors, but not PE. Do not place the clamp around screened conductors. – Always keep contact surfaces on measuring clamp's iron core clean. – Do not use measuring clamp in the immediate vicinity of devices that produce magnetic fields such as transformers or chokes and also not near adjacent conductors carrying high currents. – Never disconnect measuring clamp from the EDS195P while it is placed around electrically live conductors. Otherwise the measuring clamp may be irreparably damaged! – Aim for the best possible symmetry of the conductors in the measuring clamp. Otherwise the measuring clamp may go into saturation due to an excessively high load current and cause an alarm IΔn >10A. – Keep the measuring clamp still or let go of it during the measurement! – During the measurement do not apply any pressure to the clamp limb. 7. Start the measurement from the main distribution area of the system. Now measure along the cable using the EDS195P until the insulation fault is found. During this process move into subdistribution systems using a star-shaped approach. 8. EDS195P indicates the residual current at each measuring point. If the residual current is greater than the response value set, the "ALARM" LED illuminates and the measured value is displayed. If the buzzer is activated, there is also an audible signal. 9. For long-term measurements at a point in the system, the fault memory is to be activated in the menu 2.4 (Settings/Memory). In this way it is also possible to find intermittent residual currents provided they are above the response value set. The highest residual current measured is saved. EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 49 Operation Possible error messages Self test error: – Incorrect current transformer type set – EDS195P hardware faulty – Clamp moved while the indication ">>>Self test<<<" was displayed – An interfering residual current is flowing through the clamp – There is a PGH locating pulse acting on the clamp No CT connected / Short-circuit CT: Measuring clamp or measuring current transformer not connected or faulty. Error IΔL (can only be indicated while a measurement is in progress): – Low frequency interference, measurement not possible – EDS195P hardware faulty IΔn >10A / >2A: There is a residual current > 10 A or >2A flowing through the measuring clamp. In this case it is not possible to locate the insulation fault on the related outgoing circuit. Residual currents of this magnitude in an IT system can be caused by large system leakage capacitances or multiple insulation faults. It is therefore possible that there is an insulation fault on this outgoing circuit also with this alarm message 6.12.5 Indication of the harmonics during residual current measurement Using the EDS195P it is also possible to measure harmonics of the fundamental frequencies of 50 or 60 Hz. 1. Switch on the EDS195P by pressing the On/Off button. The device is in the EDS mode. IΔL appears in the first line of the display 2. Check correct setting for the selection of the clamp or current transformer on the display, correct if necessary 3. Now select the measurement type IΔn (RCM mode) using the button 4. Then make the following settings: – Check response value on menu 2.3 (Settings IΔn) and change if necessary: – Check system frequency on menu 2.6 (Settings IΔn) and change if necessary – Activate measurement of the harmonics on menu 2.7 (Settings /Harmonics) – Select the required harmonics on menu 4. The EDS195P indicates the harmonics of a residual current at each measuring point. If the residual current is greater than the response value set, the "ALARM" LED flashes and the measured value is displayed. If the buzzer is activated, there is also an audible signal. After the activation of the harmonics in menu 2.7, the harmonic with the greatest amplitude and the total harmonic distortion in % can be seen in the standard display with the menu closed. 50 EDS3090-v2.0_BA_en_D00008_00/03.2013 Operation 6.13 Coupling device AGE185 for higher system voltages This option is available for the variants EDS3090PG, EDS3090PG-13 and EDS3096PG with the locating current injectors PGH185 and PGH186. The coupling device AGE185 expands the nominal voltage range of the insulation fault location system EDS309.... The AGE185 reduces the losses in the locating current injector PGH18.... As a result it makes it possible to connect the PGH18... to nominal system voltages up to AC 790 V or DC 960 V. Risk of electric shock! On touching live uninsulated conductors, death or serious injury may be caused. For this reason avoid any contact whatsoever with active conductors on connecting the PGH or the AGE. Assembly, connection and placing in operation Connection and placing in operation only by an electrical technician! It is imperative the existing safety regulations are followed! The ends of the wires from the AGE185 can be connected, as necessary and to suit the local situation, to the system's PE terminal and the PE socket on the PGH186; it is not necessary to take into account the polarity.
